THIS SITE IS DEVOTED TO THE OTTAWA FREE SPEECH MOVEMENT

"Youth should be radical. Youth should demand change in the world. Youth should not accept the old order if the world is to move on. But the old orders should not be moved easily -- certainly not at the mere whim or behest of youth. There must be clash and if youth hasn't enough force or fervor to produce the clash the world grows stale and stagnant and sour in decay."

-William Allen White

You're not a victim. Stop wasting people's time with your petty problems. If you want to be taken seriously, stop creating chaos and start acting in a professional manner. People don't like spoiled children. Start acting like a man and do something productive with your time. You're not getting anyone's sympathy so please...get (psychological) help or piss off.

When you're eventually arrested and escorted off campus again, please spare us the emails of how you're a martyr. When Allan Rock was a student, he successfully invited John Lennon to the University of Ottawa for a peace conference. What have you done lately?

Please stop sending your spam to our U of O inboxes. Nobody wants to hear about your paranoid thoughts on the University's control over its student body. I hope you get arrested tonight and finally get off our campus.

Your email was to funniest shit ive ever red! Hired SPIES LOL! someone is a psychopath!Lol like you were a self proclamed Jebus!get a friggen life buddy. Go run in front a bus or something atleast them your life would have had a meaning!

I find it interesting that it has been stated many times for Mark Kelly to "get a life" or some phrase with similar meaning, yet you all spend your own time insulting him. Whose life is more pathetic? You claim that you find his emails irritating, yet you wait diligently for the next to arrive, so that you might comment upon it. Have you not thought that by using such coarse language against him you are generating sympathy for his cause? Those who read your posts will only perceive a mass of less-than-wellspoken nameless antagonists "ganging up" (for lack of a more suitable term) on one individual. You are bringing attention to him and to what he stands for. It would much better serve your purpose to simply ignore Mr. Kelly.

"envy, I think people are more hoping that Kelly will get the message that his emails only bring him more hate, and he will hopefully stop sending them."

'hopefully'? look at what the U of Ottawa is doing, for example, needlessly arresting people. exactly the reaction that has caused pretty much every student protest in history to just become bigger. clearly eNVy seems to be the better art student here...

You giant douch bag if only you were smart enough to get of your little cocoon of stupidity and go inform yourself on the subject. You would atleast look less stupid, just go to any buddy in physics: it could be profs, grad students, undergrads... the story would the same. The lies and hypocrity Marc knows no boundaries. (that of course not asking the 4 Rancourt disciples)

Before making any comment on the subject you ignorant twit inform yourself. You talk about an art student, I say you make ignorance a friggen science in your case.

As a supporter of activism and a proponent of critical theories, I would say that I fall under somewhat of the same ideological spectrum as Marc Kelly. However the methods employed by Marc Kelly are deplorable and childish. It makes me wonder if he is more of just an egotist rather than anything close to an activist with a social conscious. Everytime I hear him arguing for 'student rights' it always comes back to his own agenda and his own struggles and run-ins with the institution.

THOUGHTS ON STUDENT OPPRESSION...

"The oppressor is solidary with the oppressed only when he stops regarding the oppressed as an abstract category and sees them as persons who have been unjustly dealth with, deprived of their voice, cheated in the sale of their labor -- when he stops making pious, sentimental, and individualistic gestures and risks an act of love. True solidarity is found only in the plenitude of this act of love, in its existentiality, in its praxis. To affirm that men and women are persons and as persons should be free, and yet to do nothing tangible to make this affirmation a reality, is a farce."
